Display Connections Simplified
Easily convert the display connection on your laptop, desktop or tablet to match your display. VisionTek adapters and cables allow for a world of connection flexibility. VisionTek offers a range of cables and adapters for a variety of display types from DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, VGA, USB, USB-C and Thunderbolt 3. Using the right cable or adapter for your configuration can make all the difference for performance and visual clarity. From spreadsheets to fast paced games, we have the cables and adapters you need to be up and running smoothly.
Find the right adapter or cable for your needs
Passive Adapters and Cables
Passive adapters and cables rely on the host device to output and make any signal conversions. Most conversions require an active adapter. For DisplayPort if your host device supports DP++ you can usually connect up to 2 displays with passive connections. If your host device is not DP++ an active DisplayPort adapter is required.
Active Adapters and Cables
Active adapters and cables have a chip that converts the signal in the cable or adapter. Convert a DisplayPort signal to your display connection type easily. Connect and output to more than 2 converted DisplayPort signals allowing for multiple displays. VisionTek cables and adapters are all active where necessary to eliminate the guesswork.
USB-C Cables
Reversable universal cables that can charge your USB-C devices up to 100W of power delivery, connect a 4K display at 60Hz and transfer data at up to 20Gbps.
Do I need an adapter or a cable?
While both adapters and cables serve a very similar purpose, knowing which is the right solution for your configuration is important.
Adapters are generally less than 8 inches in length. Adapters are a quick solution for converting your video source to your display cable connection type. If you have an HDMI port on your system, but your display has a DVI cable, an HDMI to DVI adapter is the perfect solution!
Cables are longer than 8 inches, usually measured in meters or feet. Cables are a great solution at limiting clutter or signal issues by being a single connection option. Let's say you have an HDMI port on your system and your display supports DisplayPort, you can use a single HDMI to DisplayPort cable.
VisionTek has a wide selection of both adapter and cable types to meet the needs of nearly any connection type required. With solutions for video, data and charging, we offer quality adapters and cables that have been tested to ensure reliability and compatibility.
